Void treat anxiety disorders, depression
A very worrying rate: up to 20-25% of adults surveyed in Da Nang, Khanh Hoa positive for mental health problems, 16-18% in of which related to depressive disorders, anxiety.
According to experts, if not treated will progressive and worst expression is planning suicide or suicide truth. However, due to the lack of specialist mental health, people afraid to go "mental institutions" should exist a large gap in the care and treatment of the disease in VN.
Do not despise anxiety, loss sleep ...
At the workshop, held in Hanoi on 29-6 day using psychotherapy in the treatment of depression in the community, Mr. La Duc Cuong, Director of the Central Mental Hospital 1, give a figure: 60% of patients previously examined at the hospital he was schizophrenic - as "crazy" really, 40% had other disorders, including depression, the amount of patients visit each week only 30-50 people, but now every week 600 patients visit, only 30-40% of patients with schizophrenia, the rest are other disorders such as depression, anxiety, insomnia.
It looks like the live much pressure, more stress, too hasty ... is causing the disease forms related to mental health have increased opportunities.
One person anxiety, insomnia, unwillingness of anything, even do not want to eat, sleep ... lasts two weeks or more are diagnosed depressive disorder.
However, according to Tran Trung Ha - Head of scientific research and international cooperation in the Central Mental Hospital 1, usually have pain somewhere (physical pain) such as headache, sore feet ... will he visit, but who would visit for ... sad!
So most patients attending health depressive disorder, the disease severe level. A summary of the number of people seeking treatment shows that for every 10 patients with depression, the four men had planned to commit suicide, a suicidal step but thankfully alive. And some people depression suicide statistics can not be.
"Do not ignore the initial symptoms such as anxiety, depression, sadness, no earnest things I've ever enjoyed. If left untreated, depression does not go away but movements into more severe depression "- Ha recommend doctors.
According to Dr. Tran Van (Mental Hospital in Danang), it seems that life is now more pressure too cause stress, anxiety, and many more.
For example a large road, two cars nearly collided but the two drivers are sorry smile, then neutralize irritation, but a quarrel would last two upset and sometimes fights happen even before both gentle honesty.
Depression, anxiety disorders not strange that can happen to anyone, because there are up to 15% of people will have once lifetime depressive disorder. "Together resolve the trauma in your life, find ways to overcome difficulties, with appropriate choice of the moment decisions, increase self-confidence ... are skills instruction for psychologists who are depressive disorders, anxiety "- Dr. Van said.
Women are at risk of stress, anxiety higher than two men
, Mr. Cuong said 2/3 of patients with depressive disorders, anxiety are women . The vulnerable phase of this disorder is when people move from stage to mature youth and phase shift to aging, retirement preparation, postmenopausal women, pregnant women or newborn small child ...
Mr Cuong said that sometimes it is due to hormonal disorders (pre-menopausal stage, coming on the old), but sometimes the root cause of anxiety, frustrated difficult liberation is when people get wrapped more responsibility on the shoulders.
"Capital is only worried girl dresses, beauty, now pregnant, take a small child crying made her stress, if the stress lasts, could be called postpartum depression. There are people who have thought kill or hurt you because of this disease. For such cases, relatives must follow the patient, and support to the hospital for treatment, "- said General analysis.
Lack of specialist psychiatric and community stigma makes people sick, the patients who are often very afraid to go to the hospital during a mental health problem.
According to Dr. Van, even she and her colleagues "psychiatrist" Frequent eye also afraid of doctors More, the other specialized doctors are psychiatrists stigma that currently lack a psychiatrist.
In Danang with 37 physician mental health care for around 800,000 people are considered to be local many psychiatrists, while the central provinces have only 5-7 doctors provinces, districts, almost no psychiatric specialist.
According to Mr Cuong, many patients go to the hospital after worship Bai was 10 years (in fear of discrimination) makes much more serious disease.
Doctors focus on new drug treatments
Psychotherapy treat anxiety, depression will be implemented in VN. Under the guidance of US experts, this therapy is treatment per week / time, within three months. At VN, this therapy was first piloted in Khanh Hoa and Da Nang.
According to Dr. Van, when applying psychological therapy, your doctor will make recommendations for patient self-equipped with knowledge and skills overcome difficulties. Because community care so patients feel stigmatized less than to the hospital where the patient due east, there is not much time for each patient and doctors mainly treated with medication. After Khanh Hoa, Da Nang, the project team is hoping to extend this therapy to other provinces.
